here is link(character select screen with illustration of new characters and more)
What the hell? K’ doesn’t look redrawn, and Geese, Mai, and Nako look like they were ripped from RBFF2/SS4. Sheesh, and they made Marco look like a KOF character. That new hardware can produce some nice backgrounds, and I like them a lot, but geez, are they still planning to invest so much into keeping MVS-style sprites?
Well, no big deal. I actually like the RB sprites, and I’m just hoping the gameplay’s up to par…
Oh gee, Hanzo and Fuuma. Now Liokaiser can shut the fuck up.
Well at least they drew a few new sprites (Marco, Hero, and Heroine) although I would prefer they redraw everything though. SNK and Capcom have gotten way too lazy now. Heres hoping the game play will rock.
Asura, Hanzo and Fumma all have new sprites too. Jurys still out on Tung.
Marco has a pistol, he can shoot standing, ducking and jumping.
Geese has the Deadly Rave.
Tung has a MASSIVE full-screen projectile, shot by his muscular version.
Kand Tung do a tag attack together.
The main characters are named Yuki and Ai.
They also confirmed that Ramon, Kim and Vanessa are indeed the secret characters from KOF: NeoWave (but if you visited MMCafe or s-c.com, you knew that already).
Go to s-c.com for pics and videos (the whole presentation of NGBC).
More characters (supposed to be more surprising than those) will be announced at TGS, end of the month. Im thinking theyll have someone from King of the Monsters.
